Shouldnt even trust the ATM.. Aside from adding RFID, your spending habits ( at least the $ ) and general location of your travels are too easily tracked.
Really isnt the market that they are worried about, nor do they make much legislative impact, so the fact that some snot nosed teenager 'thinks piracy first' really isnt much of an issue.
Privacy at street level has been gone a long time. Now, if they take picures of you in your house thru the window we might have something to nail them on.
And they lied to you, they are actually looking for illegal copies of windows. See, now they transmit a 'piracy signal' if you have wifi attached so you can be tracked down easier by the vans. It was part of SP2.
I wonder if places like yahoo or google ( or other email services, be them free or pay ) will have to retain and provide emails on demand, from their users. Both are 'US companies'. True, you arent employeed by either company, but they might still be required to do so, depending on how loose the law is ( no, ive not had a chance to read it ).
And, does this get extended to 'general files' as well? Thats pretty much the same as shreding documents if you only retain electronic copies of critical documents.
Was that the entire block, or some sort of 'casing' material?
its also possble that several techniques were used. And dont forget its missing part of the structure due to thivery and time, so who is to say what really is going on here.
1 - the windows exploits are easier to do 2 - the results of exploitation is more damaging 3 - there are more windows machines out there so you can effect more machines with less effort.

Cash only.
Or lack of?
If you strip all the content that people care about, they will stop coming.
Obsolete the hardware, and rasie the 'hidden costs' before it even gets in the kids hands. Good move, morons.
Why couldnt they just run embedded XP, if they *really* want to go windows and raise the cost? It isnt that much of a resource hog.
They wont come.. at least in this case. Will anyone want to get close to this?
Lets see, a large corporation is lobbying in order to expand/protect its market.. This is news how?
Nope, it will be the citizens of the country. The attornies can already buy their short term safety.

This is a joke right?
What is next, taxing people for playing the board game monopoly?
So they will adminster this early in childhood so they can weed out potential bad kids?
"sorry, but johnny has been expelled from school beacuse he might, someday, perhaps do bad things somewhere, to someoene"
So, without schooling and unable to find work, he falls in to the world of crime, proving the assumption that he was a bad kid afterall.

By definition its just a *sample* of the real thing.
These days, just being in business one can almost assume you will be sued :|

It also benefits companys that make backup media.
He is a politician. Most dont believe that the constitution extends rights to the common man, so why is this surprising?
The government retains 'right of way' access for most everything when its 'for the public good'.
Be glad they are not taking the entire house to put in a super highway and its just your door that isnt working.
Too bad i cant get it to move off zero, must be a flaw in it somewhere....
Just cut the damned mic and attach a privacy swtich. Or, how about take the battery out?
Then again, its MY DAMNED PHONE! Why are thy installing things without my permission/knowledge in the first place?

One of the big features they are pushing is that you can expire email after so many days/months have have it deleted.
Microsoft set a internal policy for delete after a year ( i think, could have been 2 ) after being burnt in court due to old emails..
I was wondering when this would happen.
What the hell? Microsoft wasgiving out Beta copies like candy at most every seminar/class for months and months.. its not like they were hiding it.
Oh, and there was that little 'public download' they had on RC2... geesh.
Fuel prices hurt the economy's bottom line.
So you buy a dev tool and can make bad things with it afterwards.. Who would have thought.
GOD NO! Anyone but him .. Even Hillary...
Though, if he did win, we might get to see an assassination in our lifetime.
